Yup tastes like Wheat...and with more of a "beer" taste than ShockTop's Belgian White from the last post.
*shrug* ok I guess... not going ewwww and not wanting more either.

This beer in honor? memorial? of friends of a friend who lost their lives in accidents recently. Death is difficult to handle when it comes from any direction. Remember the "tribe" is here for you, whatever you need.

For me I've never acquired or liked the taste of the stuff. I do enjoy a nice bourbon or whiskey but never liked beer. Probably this is due to examples of "how to do it wrong" growing up I never got really into alcohol or drugs. Needless to say I was on the boring side for most of my life. As an early adult I realized that some things must be tried even if they are ultimately discarded.

To the point I am challenging myself. The local mega grocery chain has a "choose your own adventure" six pack. The lovely GF helped me pick out a few and I'm working my way through them. I got a couple of more Summer oriented beers as well as a hard cider and even found an adult root beer.

First I tried Shock Top Belgian white.
You could really taste the wheat that the beer is brewed with. Not bad. I'd recommend giving it a try.

Next up was Angry Orchard Apple ginger
It's a hard cider, tried something similar before *shrug*
Need to get the bottle opener for this one.....Oh look it says use bottle opener on the cap *smirk*

Well the ginger does something with the alcohol taste...Sorta like they had babies and they came out with tentacles. I think I'm going to call it halfway through...*pours a bourbon*
